Description

Evaluation of site ahead of development identified two main areas of archaeological potential. These areas were located on the north-east & north-west zones of the site boundary. Numerous archaeological features were identified that included linear stone walls, pit & post hole features and a stone lined hearth. Recovered artifacts reflected a possible medieval - 17th century date.
